Fri 2/21/25 Early PM

Groomer Jason went out and groomed the Fairgrounds today including the BKL oval areas. Due to a shortage of that most valuable of commodities (time) no classic tracks were set. We've got snow on the ground and it looks like a beautiful afternoon for a ski. Get out there and enjoy it!!!!

Wed 2/19/25 Late PM

Coach Rothe reports that today's Nordic Race at the Fairgrounds was GREAT. The snow conditions were super. A bit of cold wind didn't dampen the nordic ski spirit. It got skied VERY heavily today so conditions will be a bit rough until we can get out and re-groom. Looks like that will be on Thursday at some point. Might be Coach Rothe in the AM or Groomer Jason in the PM. Continued COLD temps are good news for ALL nordic skiers as they'll help us keep it all going at the Fairgrounds. Groomer Sasquatch is off for a few days of warmth in the South lands. But back early next week for more grooming.

We got a start on processing all that new snow yesterday - just packing packing packing with BOTH our Skandic snowmobiles. But the snow is very much like beach sand and didn't really pack well. And then of course the WIND!!!. Wow. Coach Rothe and I will be back out there today for more packing and grooming. HOWEVER, we'll close the Fairgrounds to skiers this PM because we're hosting a Nordic race there tomorrow (Wed 2/19) afternoon and Coach has a lot of course layout work to do. I think Coach said 7 teams racing tomorrow. If you go you may need to walk up from the high school as the parking lot will certainly be full. Fairgrounds open again on Thursday AM for skiing by EVERYONE. /groomer sasquatch/
